    For many pet owners, switching to a raw diet can seem daunting—but the rewards are often astounding. In this heartwarming episode of The Raw Feeding Journal, host Charlotte and co-host Williams discuss the life-changing results of moving to fresh food.

    In this episode, we share two incredible stories:

    • Max’s Story: Williams opens up about his own 10-year-old Labrador, Max. Learn how switching to Naked Dog Superfoods helped soothe Max's stiff joints, reduce his need for pain medication, and gave him the energy of a puppy again.
    • Rocket the Athlete: We look at Rocket, a Border Collie agility star who overcame fatigue and set personal bests after fueling up with high-protein raw nutrition.

    From improved mobility in older dogs to increased stamina in canine athletes, listen in to hear why owners are calling raw feeding the best decision they ever made.

  • The Science Behind Raw Feeding: Why It Works
    Feb 19 2026


    Critics often claim that raw dog food is just a fad with no evidence to back it up. In this episode of The Raw Feeding Journal, our hosts dig into the data to prove otherwise. We move beyond the anecdotes to explore the groundbreaking science supporting fresh food diets for our canine companions.


    In this episode, we discuss:

    • The Helsinki Studies: We break down the pivotal research from the University of Helsinki’s DogRisk group, which identified a crucial link between raw diets in puppyhood and a reduction in chronic allergies and atopic dermatitis.
    • The Microbiome Connection: With 80% of the immune system residing in the gut, we explain why raw-fed dogs boast a more diverse and resilient microbiome compared to those on sterile, dry diets.
    • Bioavailability: The biological reason why raw food results in better nutrient absorption (and smaller waste).
    • Expert Opinions: Why a growing number of nutritionists and members of the Raw Feeding Veterinary Society are advocating for species-appropriate diets to combat chronic inflammation.


    If you want to know why raw feeding works on a cellular level, this is the episode for you.

    In this comprehensive guide, hosts Charlotte and Robin strip away the jargon to answer the fundamental question: What is raw dog food?

    In this episode, we cover:

    • Raw Feeding 101: Understanding why dogs, as facultative carnivores, thrive on a diet of meat, bone, and offal.
    • Decoding the Acronyms: We explain the difference between the BARF diet (Biologically Appropriate Raw Food) and the Prey Model (PMR) so you can decide which fits your lifestyle.
    • The Golden Ratio: Breaking down the 80/10/10 rule (80% meat, 10% bone, 10% offal) to ensure a balanced diet without complex mathematics.
    • The Benefits: From smaller, less smelly stools to that famous "raw coat" shine and improved dental health.
    • Getting Started in the UK: How to find reputable pre-made raw meals and manage kitchen hygiene safely.
